Default Free UK TV on iPad/iPhone

Hi all,

Just thought I would let you know that there is a free ap for iPhone/iPad which lets you watch live tv from the uk!

You can watch bbc1, itv, channel 4 etc as well as some others. It is a bit hit and miss sometimes but I have just been watching daybreak (used to be gmtv)

I also watched loose women last night (I know, I know!)

It's called film on plus, might be worth a look?

Xxx

I can't find it on either my iPhone, iPad or the app store on my Mac at home.

Just put filmon in the search box in the app store, it comes up under the iPhone apps, it looks like a red "standby" button.

I think it says something about football in the title x

Got it, shame it's live and you can't look up programmes or record?

How the hell does that work for free!! I am assuming that if I am using my wifi at home then I am not using my data allowance.

I subscribed to filmon for a month - found it very slow, the programs kept stopping and starting. They have a few good porn channels though...

No subscription required on the iPhone. I just downloaded the app and watched ITV.
